The Lite-Med LM-9300 Plus Lithotripter is indicated for fragmentation of kidney stones and renal pelvic stones and for upper ureteral stones by extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL).
Device Description
The Lite-Med LM-9300 Plus is an Electromagnetic Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripter that effectively treats urinary calculi. It is routinely used for the fragmentation of kidney and ureteral stones and offers a good combination of clinical performance, flexibility and affordability. The standard LM-9300 Plus system consists of a shockwave generator, an operator interface (industrial PC with dual monitors), a water circulation subsystem and a patient handling subsystem. For the Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) operation to be fully functional, two more optional subsystems are necessary. The first is a C-arm X-ray fluoroscopy device and the second is an ultrasound imaging unit. Normally one of the imaging devices is sufficient. For most advanced ESWL designs such as LM-9300 Plus both X-ray and ultrasound are used for patient positioning and monitoring purposes. Shock waves are generated on the basis of a principle similar to that used in loudspeakers. An electrical impulse is sent through an inductance coil, generating a magnetic field which repulses a metallic membrane. The acoustic impulse created by this repulsion is focused by an acoustic lens to form a shock wave. A water circulation subsystem is used to provide transmission of shockwaves and cooling of the generator.

The summary describes a standard lithotripter with imaging capabilities (X-ray and Ultrasound) for targeting, but there is no mention of AI or ML being used for any function, such as image analysis, treatment planning, or shockwave delivery optimization. The performance studies focus on electrical safety, EMC, and software validation, not AI/ML performance metrics.

Yes
Explanation: The device is indicated for the fragmentation of kidney stones and renal pelvic stones and for upper ureteral stones, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

The device is a lithotripter, used to fragment kidney stones. While it uses imaging for positioning and monitoring, its primary function is therapeutic (breaking stones), not diagnostic (identifying or characterizing disease).

No

The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components including a shockwave generator, operator interface (industrial PC with dual monitors), water circulation subsystem, and patient handling subsystem. It also mentions optional C-arm X-ray fluoroscopy and ultrasound imaging units. This is not a software-only device.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the fragmentation of kidney and ureteral stones using extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL). This is a therapeutic procedure performed on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device description details a system that generates and focuses shock waves to break up stones within the body. It also mentions imaging modalities (X-ray and ultrasound) used for positioning and monitoring during the procedure.
  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.

This device is a therapeutic medical device used for a physical intervention on the patient, not for analyzing samples outside the body.

§ 876.5990 Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripter.

(a)
Identification. An extracorporeal shock wave lithotripter is a device that focuses ultrasonic shock waves into the body to noninvasively fragment urinary calculi within the kidney or ureter. The primary components of the device are a shock wave generator, high voltage generator, control console, imaging/localization system, and patient table. Prior to treatment, the urinary stone is targeted using either an integral or stand-alone localization/imaging system. Shock waves are typically generated using electrostatic spark discharge (spark gap), electromagnetically repelled membranes, or piezoelectric crystal arrays, and focused onto the stone with either a specially designed reflector, dish, or acoustic lens. The shock waves are created under water within the shock wave generator, and are transferred to the patient's body using an appropriate acoustic interface. After the stone has been fragmented by the focused shock waves, the fragments pass out of the body with the patient's urine.(b)

IV. Device Description

The Lite-Med LM-9300 Plus is an Electromagnetic Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripter that effectively treats urinary calculi. It is routinely used for the fragmentation of kidney and ureteral stones and offers a good combination of clinical performance, flexibility and affordability. The standard LM-9300 Plus system consists of a shockwave generator, an operator interface (industrial PC with dual monitors), a water circulation subsystem and a patient handling subsystem. For the Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) operation to be fully functional, two more optional subsystems are necessary.

For most advanced ESWL designs such as LM-9300 Plus both X-ray and ultrasound are used for patient positioning and monitoring purposes.

Shock waves are generated on the basis of a principle similar to that used in loudspeakers. An electrical impulse is sent through an inductance coil, generating a magnetic field which repulses a metallic membrane. The acoustic impulse created by this repulsion is focused by an acoustic lens to form a shock wave. A water circulation subsystem is used to provide transmission of shockwaves and cooling of the generator.

V. INDICATION FOR USE

The Lite-Med LM-9300 Plus Lithotripter is indicated for fragmentation of kidney stones such as renal calyx stones and renal pelvic stones and for upper ureteral stones by extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL).

VI. COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE

The Lite-Med LM-9300 Plus has the same technological characteristics as the predicate. The shock wave characteristics are measured by taking the guideline "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Notifications 510(k)s for Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripters Indicated for the

5

Fragmentation of Kidney and Ureteral Calculi" described in the consensus standard IEC 61846 "Ultrasonics – Pressure pulse lithotripters – Characteristics of fields" (1998) into consideration. Fiber Optic Probe Hydrophones are used in the measurements. The details of the measurements/calculations are given in relevant part of 510(k) application. The results are found similar to the predicate device characteristics.

Technical Elements:

    1. Shock wave generation type: Electromagnetic
    1. Shock wave used for fragment stone
    1. Use of a water cushion to deliver energy
    1. Treatment table used for moving patient position
    1. X-ray and Ultrasound used for localization

The following technological differences exist between the subject and predicate devices:

    1. Use of different x-ray system
    1. Use of different ultrasound scanner

VII. PERFORMANCE DATA

Non-Clinical Performance Data

The LM-9300 Plus is in accordance with the following safety and performance requirements, and provided in support of substantial equivalence:

  • Electrical Safety and EMC
    • O IEC60601-1
    • IEC60601-1-2 O
    • O IEC 60601-2-36
    • O IEC61846
    • O IEC62366
    • ISO14971 O

VIII. CONCLUSIONS

From a clinical perspective and comparing design specifications, the LM-9300 Plus is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. The LM-9300 Plus meets the FDA requirements stated in "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Notifications 510(k)s for Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripters Indicated for the Fragmentation of Kidney and Ureteral Calculi" issued on Aug. 9, 2000. Lite-Med Inc. believes the minor differences of the LM-9300 Plus and its predicate devices should not raise any concerns regarding the overall safety or effectiveness.
